  • They are as cyclical as people are cyclical for falling for confidence scams again and again and again … You can consider something based on how good an investment it is, or based on how ethical it is. Very seldom will both work out. People, don’t cry about the rich getting richer, the poor getting poorer, assholes behaving more like assholes, and inflation skyrocketing when you normalize and even crowdsource this sort of relationship with your economy. Don’t be surprised when the society that surrounds you is so burnout all you have to spend your money on is shit.





  • I actually only installed M.2 a few years back when I went serious on my PC. I’m aware of the issues, although it’s still running good. I wonder how long it will last. I still have a few IDE drives, and some no longer can be read. Not because they’ve lost the data, but it just doesn’t spin up correctly. It will be interesting to see how it works out, at the moment I’m keeping an eye out on the health using CrystalDiskInfo. There’s certainly been cases of M.2 sticks with shitty firmware, but so far I seem to have avoided them. I’m also trying out a RAIDed M.2 mini NAS, it will be fun to see how that works out compared to the traditional NAS.


  • Core i9 - Well there’s your problem.

    No NVMe M.2s? What a noob! HDDs in this day and age!?!? Would you like a floppy disk with that?

    4 slots of RAM? What is this, children’s playtime hour? You are only supposed to have 2 slots of RAM installed for optimum overclocking.

    Does the dude even 8K 300fps ray trace antialias his YouTube videos!?!? I bet he caps out his Chrome tabs below a thousand.




  • Literally ignoring the slaughter of Uyghurs and Ukranians, never mind how China is essentially building up the hate speech against Japan and Taiwan within the populace through their state controlled social networks. Get back to us when you can criticize China in the same way. Same for Russia, extreme jail sentences are dished out for anyone who criticizes Putin. You are too much of a caricature, and exactly what the meme refers to.

    The USSR was a victim of trying to outimperial an imperialist power and going bankrupt, and now it’s an oligarchy with Putin at the top and any serious opposition dead and out the window / irradiated with polinium / poisoned by Novichok. China has literal execution vans driving around the country, has extended its secret police deep state overseas to intimidate Chinese who don’t play ball, and constantly rewrites its map to expand to land they want to claim as theirs. They are in border disputes with India, they are actively preparing to invade Taiwan, they have blockaded the island several times now, they have cooperated to cut undersea cables, have militarized fishing fleets that migrate world wide and bully local fishermen and exhaust the local stocks. And all you have is that raging desire to whatabout “b-b-but the US does it / does worse!” right about now and a whole bunch of rhetoric that makes you a puppet of it.

    Russia is where it is at because it has chosen this road. Before Putin tried to use the myth of restablishing USSR to enlarge the rule of his oligarchy, it was well on its way to being quite influential in Europe, so much so that it was a major partner of Germany. Russia chose conquest and sides with dictators who exploit their people. It’s telling that the US is at its worst when it has the people who collude closest with Russia.








  • I think we need to live sexually, morally, and politically repressed like in the good ol’ times. It made it easier to control and indoctrinate people during the growth of empires designed to serve themselves and their pyramid scheme like structures. It’s why we burned the satyr plays. I’m just going to say it, if we are going to shift as a subservient and servile class under our billionaire oligarchs, we need to be twice as repressed as we are now, not more “liberated”. Who made the best servants? Eunuchs, that’s who. Also, please make more babies, we need to feed the feedback loop we have going regarding population growth and our economy/wars. /swtf
